Emily Haines - Freak lyrics

Traded your bucket and bruises

For a bag of bones and a wardrobe of excuses

You live too hard, you look too good

And you're in my backyard

Just like everybody said you would be

Greased by impostors, plastic at the crust

Corporate larder

You'd go too far if you could

And you're in my backyard

Just like everybody said you would be

So let's get wired, I feel weak

You make it look so easy, come on, come on freak

You're a liar, I'm a thief

And this will get you through the day

We'll get on marvellously

It gets so crowded in an empty place

Two eyeballs for every face

Three bodies hanging up a transient's cell

Six hands in the same hole

It gets so crowded in an empty place

Two eyes for every face

Three weary bodies hanging up one soul

Six hands in the same hole

Everybody said you would be

Greased by impostors, plastic at the crust

In our corporate larder

You live too hard, you look too good

And you're in my backyard

Just like everybody said you would be

So let's get wired, I feel weak

You make it look so easy, come on, come on

Let's get wired, I feel weak

You make it look so easy, come on, come on, freak

Let's get wired

Very nice work there, Jane

Done some very nice work

Just keep it brief

We'll get on marvellously

[It's not really going to work, I don't think]

[Well, just play it anyway]

Beautiful boy, what can I do

I told you, I told you

Beautiful boy, I know I never do

What I want to, I want to
